The only question that will arise ahead of the Confederations Cup game between Spain and Tahiti will be: by how many goals will the World and European champions win?

Tahiti acquitted themselves pretty well against Nigeria, playing out of their skins and even managing to score an historic goal; but still at the end of the day, they lost 6-1 to the African champions.

Spain are a different proposition; they are easily the best team in the world and have dominated the international stage for over five years.

Tahiti could be in for a really rollicking if Spain fancy it on Thursday.

"Tahiti will do everything they can to frustrate us," Spain winger Pedro said. "It's an important game, and we must respect our opponents. We must also make sure we don't take victory as a given, or think too much about the number of goals we might score."

One of the standout players for Spain in their 2-1 victory over Uruguay was Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas, who seemed to enjoy his midfield role a lot more than the 'false 9' he has been asked to play at times for Spain.

"We played well and it was the complete performance," the former Arsenal skipper told FIFA's official website. "The important thing is the three points and the way we controlled the whole game, not the way I played. A start like this always gives you confidence for what lies ahead.

"I've been playing for Spain for eight years, which is a long time, and I can remember some games we've played and some individual performances where we've been at a similar level. The important thing, though, is that we played well and I felt comfortable. That's what counts to my mind."

Spain have won every single major international trophy during their dominant reign, bar the Confederations Cup. Fabregas believes this time Spain can add the final piece of silverware to their collection.

"We're just trying to play our game and our tournament," he added. "We can win it, just as long as we do what we know best, which is to keep possession and control the pace of the game. When we do that, we're very difficult to beat, as we've shown."
